"Determining where and how to store a model railway when
it is not in use can be difficult, especially if space is
severely limited; a folding railway layout can be the
solution to this problem. The author has designed an
ingenious folding wooden case that accommodates his truly
remarkable N-gauge multi-track layout, and which is also
suitable for an oval track layout in 00 gauge. In this
fascinating book, the author describes all aspects of how
to build the folding case and how to construct the layout
within using lightweight materials such as rigid foam.
Some of the most remarkable features of the layout are how
to construct and install a working cable car, moving road
vehicles, a revolving children's roundabout, and a
helicopter with motorized rotor blades. There are over 300
excellent step-by-step diagrams and photographs."--
